Cliff Cooper, CEO and founder of Orange Amplification, has been appointed an Honorary Patron of the Strawberry Field Salvation Army campaign.
The charity aims to reopen the fields, reconstruct and extend the original buildings of the children’s home where John Lennon played as a child, immortalized in the Beatles song Strawberry Fields Forever.
Cooper has a lifetime passion for the music of The Beatles and a lifelong respect for the Salvation Army who helped and supported his father when returning home after serving four years in France during the First World War. He will work alongside Lady Judy Martin OBE, widow of Beatles producer George Martin.
“I am delighted to be involved with a project which is very close to my heart,” Cooper said. “Orange and I will be announcing exciting news about how we will be backing the Strawberry Field redevelopment in January.”
